Best Businesses in Austin, TX

Barry is as good as small business owners come.  We had a good experience overall having fitting room lights and a switch installed, but an issue with the billing after the fact.  Barry took our concerns very seriously, did an investigation on his end, and made it right.  I highly recommend Barry and the team at Beckett!

Amazing company, always shows up when they say they will. Guys are funny and explain everything very well. I would highly recommend this company

Spicer Mechanical is very professional, on time, honest, and dependable. Spicer Mechanical has been the only answer for so many of my homeowner needs....heating & a/c, plumbing, electrical, appliance installation & repair and I even had them hang my flatscreen tv and hook up my surround sound. I don't think there is anything they cannot do. You'd be totally crazy to call anyone else.

Jimmy was a life saver!  Came out same day and saved me from worries of a wooden house and  a faulty switch!

I hired Aurelio Ruiz to bring electric and cable to my back yard.  He provided me a price and a start date. He kept his word and did an extremely fantastic job.  Because of his professionalism, I hired him again to do more electrical work including indoor and outdoor fans and lights. Aurelio is awesome and a real Master Electrician.  Thank you and absolutely I will be hiring him again in the near future. He is my electrician and go to person from now on.

Absolute Electric will figure out your electric troubles, and explain it in a way that we can understand. They do more than just hang a ceiling fan. They make sure it's right and safe. How come that light won't come on? Call them - They'll figure it out!

I called Freedom Enterprise electrical, Scott the owner answered and made an appt, he showed up on time, which is so rare to find with many companies these days. I had a problem with the electrical wiring in the house, it was a tricky problem. Scott found the source and fixed it. Excellent service with very Low Cost. He was professional and honest. I highly recommend this company.

I had issues with no electrical power for about 2 of my rooms.  One room been the computer room where we have all our electronics: internet routers, alarm hard drive, WiFi and working areas.  I was very worry because this systems are essential for me but more for my wife, who is a teacher and does a lot of computer work for lessons plans, etc.
 We are thankful that were we're taking care of our electric issues by Mr. John and Mr. Steve who were super professional, skill, polite and approachable.   As soon as they came in my house they when to test and diagnose the problem that was fix in one hour.  From now on you can count on getting my business and my family.
  Once again I would like to express our gratitude for a great job done.

Very professional! Arrived when promised, diagnosed and corrected problem. Michael, the dispatcher, and Jim, the tech, were great!

Very professional guys.  Efficient and clean.  Polite and easy to have in your home.  Great prices, too!!

Oscar was great and very helpful. I got a quote from many other electricians and were waaaaay off from Oscar. They were trying to sell me something I didnt need. Oscar was honest and fair. He fixed my issue without selling me something I didnt need. I recommend him for all your electrical needs.

Bob and his company did a great job installing our back porch outlets, fans and TV's a few years ago. I have recommended him and his company to many people. They do good quality work at a good value.

Just had excellent experience with this company. Team was efficient, detail oriented, and thoughtful about the projects that weren't super straightforward. They arrived on time as well. I had 2 chandeliers installed, 1 chandelier moved and 1 sconce installed in future kids room. I will use them in the future.

Central Texas Electric installed a chandelier for me, and it looks great! They were prompt with communication (through the yelp messaging feature), fast, and very fairly priced. When we make more lighting changes in our home, they'll be my first call.

Very quick to respond and easy to work with. Honest work at a very good price. Will use again.

Apex electric has completed three jobs at my house.  One was an emergency breaker job late at night, a Tesla charger in my garage and two outlet issues. All the jobs were completed fast and at a great price.   I highly recommend Apex.

Fusion electric charges for travel time at the same rate as labor. The invoice does not separate travel time from labor time, nor does it detail any shared travel time between jobs. Our job an hour from Marble Falls had hours billed that were double the hours worked and there was another Fusion job in the area but details of the travel hours were not provided.
There was a parts charge on the invoice but no detail. Fusion did charge us travel time to return borrowed but unused parts but during bill discussion agreed to withdraw that charge.
Fusion charges a 5% credit fee and sent us an invoice that had already been charged to our card with that fee all without our permission as we wanted to use a check to pay to avoid the credit fee-invoice due date was 28 days later.
One should be very careful when using this company, recording time on the job, parts, est travel, demand full accounting prior to any payment and be prepared to contest the billing.

Unfortunately we did not have a good experience with this company.  I first reached out to Dunman electric on 4/26.  We were able to get them scheduled for an inspection on 5/3.  The inspection was $225, and following this, our understanding was that they would provide an estimate for how much it would cost to complete our electrical repair - which was part of a large remodel.  Rather than a list of needed repairs and estimated costs for labor and materials to complete them, this is (verbatim) what they gave us:

Performed inspection of basement.  Found several things that are not to code.  Man had done a lot of things out of code.  The only way Dunman electric will do this work is for Dunman electric to come in and treat it as if it were a new rough in and trim out.  Any work that was performed by the customer will need to be removed and new put in.  This is the only way we can feel confident to put on licence on this job.  All framing will have to be up.  Based on this information alone, they were going to charge us over $6,000 to do the work.

Of note, they quoted us this $6,000+ price after the inspector that came out to the property verbally quoted us that the job would cost roughly $3600.  We called and emailed over the month of May and into June, with the request to revise the quote to include a breakdown of costs for labor, materials, permit transfers, etc.  They did not revise the document; at one point they said they would look into it, and then did not get back to us.  I finally followed up by email.  When they still did not respond, I waited a week and emailed again, this time requesting a refund for the inspection and stating that unfortunately I would need to write a negative review.  Then, they wrote back, to refuse the refund of the inspection cost and tell me they had replied many times to my request.  Unfortunately, this was not consistent with my experience, and truthfully their reply felt defensive in tone.

I can't speak to the quality of their work because we chose not to move forward with this company, but we would have appreciated improved clarity in communication on the front end.

I set up an appt for today between 9-1 to check on a drip from my faucet in the bathroom.  The tech showed up at 5pm.  I explained the problem to him.  He DID NOTHING...touched nothing.  Immediately got out his ipad to start giving me prices to replace my faucet.  The quote was over $ 400.  I cannot afford it.  I have requested a refund for the service charge of $ 29.
